Carl B. Yerian, Mission April 17, 1944
The following day the target was rail yards at Sofia, Bulgaria. Thirty aircraft dropped bombs on the target causing damage to many freight cars. The Tuskegee Airmen had replaced their P47s with P51s and provided escort to the target. Three aircraft were damaged by anti aircraft fire. These missions all required getting up around 4am, flying 8-10 hours on oxygen, fighting off enemy fighters, encountering intense anti aircraft flak and enduring debriefing by intelligence officers upon return.
The website 376bg.org is NOT our site nor is it our endowment fund.
At the 2017 reunion, the board approved the donation of our archives to the Briscoe Center for American History, located on the University of Texas - Austin campus.
Also, the board approved a $5,000 donation to add to Ed Clendenin's $20,000 donation in the memory of his father. Together, these funds begin an endowment for the preservation of the 376 archives.
